GLA 81540 - Harlesden Canalside

This Mini-Competition seeks the appointment of a Community Workshop Operator to progress the delivery of OPDC's vision, in partnership with LB Brent and the Canal & River Trust, in delivering workshop spaces and public realm improvements where local communities and canal users can -among other things- fix their boats, bikes and other things. These, and any other potential activities will be scoped and prototyped on-site in collaboration with local communities and stakeholders, in order to establish a schedule of activities, a business plan, and designs of the infrastructure and public realm improvements.

The proposals will be delivered on-site by the OPDC, and operated by the appointed service provider for a period of up to 5 years. OPDC is open to consider different locally embedded business and operating models depending on the outcomes of the prototyping stage.

This tender opportunity shall be evaluated in two stages. Bidders that meet the technical threshold and are one of the five (5) highest ranking bidders against Stage One shall be invited to submit a proposal for Stage Two.

Late tender submissions will not be accepted. Failure to comply may result in your submission being rejected by us.
